Recent reports suggest that 12 to 15% of adults have self-reported hearing difficulties and normal pure tone audiograms. This suggests that the traditional pure tone audiogram is a relatively poor indicator of functional communication difficulties. In this podcast, Lina Zadeh, PhD, discusses how extended-high frequency audiometry, distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) and the Digits-in-Noise (DIN) test can be used clinically to identify hidden hearing loss. She also explores effective management strategies for those identified with this condition.
